Picture Rocks Cooling, Heating & Plumbing replaces gas furnaces for homes across Tucson, from Picture Rocks and the Tucson Mountains side to Marana, Oro Valley, Casas Adobes and the Catalina Foothills. A furnace-only replacement runs around $5,000, quoted free and in writing. If your home has central AC, plan on replacing the furnace and the AC together: most of our furnace jobs pair the new furnace with a new AC, and keeping the existing coil and condenser is rare. We size the new furnace with a Manual J heat-load calculation, pre-measure the space, test the ductwork, and most replacements are finished in a single day. The written price is the price you pay, and qualifying residential installations carry our written 1-year money-back guarantee.
A Tucson furnace only runs a few months a year, so it rarely shows the slow wear a daily-use system would. It tends to work fine until the first cold night it doesn't. If yours is older, has a cracked heat exchanger, or needs a repair that costs more than it's worth, compare a replacement. If a repair still makes sense, we'll say so: see furnace repair in Tucson.
Why sizing matters more than the sales pitch
An oversized furnace short-cycles, wears out early, and still leaves parts of the house uneven. An undersized one runs constantly and never quite keeps up. Either way, you paid for the wrong system.
We don't size a replacement off the unit you already have or a rule of thumb. We run a Manual J heat-load calculation and pre-measure the space, so the number we quote is based on your house, not a guess that's easy to sell.
New gas furnace or a heat pump?
Many Tucson homes heat with heat pumps, not gas furnaces. If you have gas service and like furnace heat, a new furnace paired with your AC keeps it that way. If you're replacing the AC at the same time, ask us to price a heat pump too: one outdoor unit cools and heats, and Tucson's mild winters suit it. You get the options side by side in writing, Good, Better and Best, and you choose. Replacing the cooling side as well? See AC replacement in Tucson.
Manufactured or mobile home? We replace downflow furnaces too: manufactured home heating and cooling.

Our process
Our installation process
01
Load calculation
A Manual J calculation determines the actual heating load of your home, not just a swap of your old unit's rating.
02
Pre-measurement & duct check
We measure the space and the existing ductwork before installation day, so the plan accounts for what's really there.
03
Install day
The new furnace goes in on a schedule you're told up front, with the pricing you already approved.
04
measureQuick verification
The finished system is verified with measureQuick — live-instrument readings, scored — confirming it performs the way it was designed to, not just that it was installed.
Furnace installation in Marana, Oro Valley and the northwest side
We install furnaces across the northwest side every heating season. In Oro Valley's foothills, a house can run cooler at night than one a mile away in open desert, which is exactly why we size from your house and not a chart. Casas Adobes homes built in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s often have a mix of original and replaced equipment, so we start with what was actually replaced and test the ductwork before we quote. Larger Catalina Foothills homes are often multi-zoned; tell us which thermostat runs cold.
